Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that 2019 Golden Eaglets invitee Prince Adegoke has completed his transfer to EFL League One club Charlton Athletic following his departure from Chelsea. 

The Addicks are poised to confirm the capture of the promising goalkeeper on a one-year contract, with the option of an additional season.

Although Adegoke put pen to paper on the deal last week, the official signing ceremony took place on Thursday, with his mother and father in attendance. 

The Cobham product is the second player of Nigerian descent signed by Charlton Athletic in the summer transfer window, after versatile left-back Tayo Edun, who was acquired from Blackburn Rovers. 

Adegoke was linked with possible moves to Stoke City and Nottingham Forest in his final season at Chelsea when it became clear that he was not going to stay at Chelsea beyond the end of the season. 

Luton Town, Queens Park Rangers and Peterborough United explored the possibility of signing Adegoke this summer before Charlton Athletic won the race for his signature. 

The deal taking Adegoke to Charlton Athletic was brokered by former Nigeria U23 invitee Ohi Longe.
